ProperFile review
A feature-inclusive legal portal for small firms that prefer a web-based system.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ProperFile is legal practice management software for solo attorneys and law firms. It brings case and client file management, document storage, client intake forms, electronic signatures, billing, calendaring, task management, and a client portal into one system. Clients can access case information, upload documents, exchange messages, review and sign documents, and make payments. Its feature set fits small firms that want core client-facing workflows in one web-based product without assembling several separate tools.
Pricing is organized around one feature-inclusive All Features plan. According to the published plans, the first user costs $55 per user per month with annual billing or $65 per user per month with monthly billing. Additional users cost $35 per user per month annually or $45 per user per month monthly. The included capabilities cover case management, document storage, the client portal, e-signatures, customizable intake forms, and recurring payments. Online payments run through LawPay, while calendaring includes Google Calendar synchronization, giving the platform a focused ecosystem rather than a broad integration catalog.
ProperFile’s breadth is its main strength: the portal connects intake, document exchange, signatures, messages, payments, billing, and matter work into a single legal workflow. Task assignment and workflow automations add operational support beyond basic client communication. The trade-off is platform coverage and ecosystem breadth. Firms seeking a native mobile experience or a wider range of integrations should consider alternatives with broader platform support. ProperFile is a sensible fit for small firms that prioritize a straightforward portal and feature coverage over extensive integrations or flexible plan structure.
